Paddington House of Pancake at One Utama Shopping mall is a well-known place for those searching for pancakes and waffles on both sweet and savoury note. The place is really cosy and comfortable overlooking some greenery.

I was their last customer for the day and it was so sweet for the staff to reopen the kitchen for me!
I bought a voucher for their mini treasure box and a cup of coffee/tea/ice lemon tea (Rm 13.90). Yummy Yummy! Cute little mini pancakes that are both fluffy and chewy. It is indeed a cute little treasure box filled with jewels of assorted fruits and ice cream. Ice lemon tea is normal.

Verdict: It is indeed a steal to have it at just only Rm 13.90!! The staff is really super friendly.

The restaurant: Sushi Q is located inside the One Utama Shopping Mall. It is actually a Japanese kiosk.

Environment/interior-decor: First impression is Colourful and fun! They have a limited number of sitting place.

Menu: Limited, unlike the other branches, One Utama branch does not serve donburi and ramen. You will also realized what you can order is based on what is available there.

Food:Assorted sushi and sashimi box (Left: Rm 18.80) & Lobster Mayo Maki (Right: Rm 14.80)

It looks appealing and colourful, but don’t let the picture fool you! The salmon sashimi was thinly sliced and the taste of the sushi was just so-so. I don’t get why people raved about the lobster mayo maki, it is creamy but that’s it! There wasn’t any much flavour, smokiness, bits or anything. It was just coloured mayo with a little flavour. In addition to all that, it was really irritating that the sushi rice keeps falling off. (In fact, I felt like going in there and teach them the proper ways to make sushi rice).

Awabi (Rm 8.00)

Basically seasoned abalone. Is sweet and chewy, and it’s basically the other representation of the well-known baby octopus. Portion is small.

Service: Well it’s a kiosk.

Verdict: I definitely won’t pay the full price for this. Luckily I paid 55% of the original price. No I would not go again unless there is a major revamp. Oh yes, I came by around 8 pm, and there was hardly anything left.

So I bought vouchers to try their desert and I can say I was not expecting much, but boy was I wrong.Signature Taro Q (front) Angel A Soya Ice (back)

Signature Taro Q is their signature desert, and I know why. It consists of yam taro, grass jelly, some other condiments topped with grass jelly ice and milk. Chewy yam taro but the highlight is the grass jelly ice. The whole desert went up another level with the grass jelly ice and the usual smooth, slightly sweet and bitter grass jelly. The milk helps a bit by giving some creaminess and milky taste to the overall sweet and slightly bitter sensation. Well, its very refreshing as well!

Angel A soya Ice is alright, but after tasting their signature desert above, one cant help but compared both of them. The soya ice is light but maybe too light in soya flavour. The desert is lacking some sweetness to make it even better. Though, the desert is really cooling..

Verdict: Go for their signature taro Q. You wont regret!

** The shop now have a very short operating hours! If you are working, go on weekends.

The restaurant: Located near Sunway Giza

Environment/interior-decor: Air-con, round marble tables with stools.

Menu: Do not expect a huge variety here.

Food:The picture does not show you all the dim sum I ordered. There are some good ones here and there. But since I cant recall now, their dim sum are generally acceptable. However, not something that will make one yearn to go back for.I do recalled their custard bun (Liu Sha Bao) was , minimal amount of stuffing and no flowing out molten salted egg yolk.

Service: Kind off slow. The Paos and dim sum were almost lukewarm. Need send back a couple times until they get it right.

Price/Verdict: Rm 169 worth of dim sum spread, but I paid Rm 89 instead with vouchers. I came back again a month after and the portions seems to shrink a little bit. Unless I live super near by and don't know where to go, maybe I will go back.

Stickhouse prices might not appeal to many, but one just got to try once!I got myself Giandula which is a mixture of hazelnut and chocolate, half coated with dark chocolate and pistachio. I love it!
It is not that rich and creamy but acceptable enough to create an enjoyable moment. Coupled with extra dark choco and pistachio makes one wonder why I never go for full topping instead.

The price however might be a set back.
